Movies on Playbook

Hi everyone most probably heard this a million times, which is the easiest way to download movies on to a Playbook and watch them off line. Had Playbook for ages and still haven't used it to its full potential. Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks

for me it has been to download the movie/show and simply drag and drop in the video folder when connected to your PC. There are a few other ways that just seemed a bit to techy for me. hope this helps!

You can also download movies directly to your PB from the net from various sites that allow you to download movies. Most of these sites are illegal, and linking to them here is generally frowned upon- though some have been linked to and discussed in this forum previously. One site that seems legal, in that they have movies available that are in the public domain {their copyrights have expired} is PublicDomainFlicks.com - Free Public Domain Movie Downloads . To download a movie, simply tap and hold on a download link, then select "save link as". You can also purchase or rent flicks from the Blackberry Video Store.

If you are talking about movies/dvds that you own, you can use Aimersoft video converter or Freemake, they both have settings for the Playbook, you just pop it into your cd drive and convert away, then drag and drop though Windows Explorer. Yes, you can also do it of wifi, but if there is an RF glitch from some outside source, it can corrupt the download. Hardwire is the most reliable.

Nowdays, alot of DVDs and Bray disk come with a digital copy, again, pop into cd drive and drag/drop the digital copy and you are good(proviso no AC3 audio codec, no workie.

If you are looking to download from "torrent" sites or like some one who posts here once in a while with links to the "newest movies", BEWARE, virus and more than likely illegal.

Google Freemake, and Aimersoft Video Converter. They also look good when plugged into the big screen.....
